There is a road that curves to avoid the hill. A big rock in the parking lot that no one dares to move. A field people cross only in daylight, and only if they must.

In Iceland, such gestures are not always explained, and they are rarely questioned. Some believe in hidden beings. Others may not, but still act as though they do. The line between folklore and daily life is subtle, and often blurred. Whether shaped by memory, imagination or truth, these stories remain part of a living tradition, revealing an ongoing connection between land and belief. A way of life that makes space for what can’t be seen - a realm where hidden beings coexist with the visible world.
